WALDORF SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toast the walnuts: Place the walnuts on a rimmed quarter sheet pan and toast them in the oven until they are fragrant and browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Roast the grapes: In a medium bowl, toss the grapes with the confectioners' sugar and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Arrange the grapes in a single layer on a rimmed sheet pan and bake until their skins start to wrinkle, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the grapes from the oven and set them aside to cool.
• Make the dressing: To a blender, add the lemon zest and juice, vinegar, mustard and granulated sugar. Blend until smooth and, with the blender running, slowly and steadily add the remaining 5 tablespoons olive oil. Taste for seasoning, adding more vinegar or salt if needed. If the flavor is too strong or the dressing is too thick (or separates a little), blend in a splash of cool water.
• Assemble the salad: Arrange the lettuce leaves on a serving platter. Toss the apples and celery ribs with a some of the dressing in a large bowl; set aside. Scatter the chicken over the lettuce, followed by the toasted walnuts, and drizzle with some of the dressing. Scatter the roasted grapes and dressed apples and celery over the top. Drizzle with more dressing and scatter the inner celery leaves over the top.

WALDORF SALAD

Steps:

• Peel, core and medium dice the red delicious apples. Apples start with approximately 2 pounds of apple to yield 1 1/4 pounds of diced apple. Place in a mixing bowl and mix with the lemon juice. This will keep the apple from discoloring. Before dicing the celery, blanch it in boiling water for 60 seconds and cool it with cold water. This will bring out the sweet flavor and extend the salads shelf life. Combine diced apple, lemon juice, mayonnaise, celery and chill. Serve on a bed of lettuce topped with walnuts and add a simple fruit garnish. Traditionally this is also served with tiny sweet finger sandwiches. (Example: date nut bread and raspberry jam.)
• Serve with: Boston or Romaine leaf lettuce .
